The tables were turned on tonight's episode of Britain's Got Talent as the hard-to-impress Simon Cowell received the golden buzzer treatment for a change.

Cowell received critique from his fellow panellists as The Hacker, whose identity and voice were disguised, had the audience and fellow judges in hysterics by mimicking Simon's iconic lines.
Then, in a bold move, the hopeful performer decided to press the coveted golden buzzer.
